Forskare publicerar nya rön om validerade biomarkörer för individens risk att utveckla Alzheimers sjukdom. Med en modell som kombinerar nivåerna av två specifika proteiner i blodet hos personer med lättare minnessvårigheter kan forskarna förutsäga risken att utveckla alzheimerdemens på individnivå. Forskarna har även utvecklat en onlinetjänst, en app där läkaren skriver in patientens undersöknings
